목이의 균사생육에 일반적인 특성을 조사한 결과 최적온도는 $25^{circ}C$, pH는 6~7범위에서 균사생육이 양호하였다. 배지원 선발로 무기염류종류와 농도는 $MgSO_4{cdot}7H_2Os$ 0.05%, $KH_2PO_4$ 0.1%에서 균사생육이 양호하였고, 탄소원은 흑설탕 2%첨가에서 균사생육이 양호하였으며, 질소원은 콩가루를 0.3~0.5%로 첨가하였을 때 목이버섯의 균사생육이 제일 양호하였다.
This study was performed to obtain the scientific data an artificial culture of ear mushroom(Auricularia auricula). Liquid cultural of Auricularia auricula. mycelium was characterized with respect to temperature, pH, compositions of inorganic, carbon and nitrogen. The its optimum temperature and media pH were at $25^{circ}C$ and pH 5.0~6.0 on the mycelial growth, respectively. The optimum inorganic compositions and concentration for mycelial growth were $MgSO_4$ 0.05%(w/v) and $KH_2PO_4$ 0.1%(w/v), respectively. The optimum carbon sources and nitrogen sources were black-sugar 2%(w/v) and soybean powder at 0.3~0.5%(w/v) with7 days optimum culture time.
